Quest Overview

The Testing Limits quest is a Chain Contract quest in Dune Awakening that involves assisting various citizens on Arrakis with their problems. 
This specific contract requires you to recover an old poison snooper from an Imperial Testing Station for a client, with the station located not far from Griffin's Reach.

Navigating to the Test Labs

Once you arrive at the test lab location, you'll need to deal with any enemies in the area first. After clearing the immediate threats, make your way to the area where you'll find a hologram display.

Finding the Correct Path

When you reach the hologram area, you might be tempted to go through the obvious door and search for a key to access other locked areas. However, this is not the correct approach. Instead, you want to head to the left from the hologram position.

Following the Route to the Poison Snooper

From the left path, continue following the corridor. You'll encounter two more enemies along the way that you'll need to eliminate. After dealing with these threats, proceed to the right, where you'll find a staircase leading to your destination.

Locating the Storage Room

Keep going up the stairs and following the path until you reach a room with a bright light that stands out. There are several storage boxes in this well-lit room that you'll need to look through.

Retrieving the Automated Poison Snooper

The Automated Poison Snooper is a mechanical device that may appear broken or inactive, as it doesn't seem to have detected anything recently. 
Search through the storage chests in the glowing room until you locate the item. The poison snooper should be found in one of these containers.

Completing the Quest

Once you've successfully obtained the automated poison snooper, simply return to the quest giver to deliver the item and complete the Testing Limits contract.

The quest giver will acknowledge that obtaining the snooper wasn't easy, noting that testing stations can be treasure troves but are usually full of people who don't like to share.
